Welcome back to Show and Tell. Everyone is welcome to join, even if you have never posted before and just found out about Show and Tell for the first time today. In fact, we hope you do go back to your blog and post your own Show and Tell item and then return with the link to your post. Details on how to participate are located at the bottom of this post.

Let's begin.

No good words; just a picture of my favourite cookie to honour the man who built the company that used every day products to create change in the world. He donated $150 million dollars from Newman's Own. Rest in Peace, Paul Newman.

Are you next? Are you ready to go? Well, get to the head of the class.

Want to bring something to Show and Tell?

If you would like to join circle time and show something to the class, simply post each Sunday (or earlier in the weekend or on Monday if you can't do Sunday), hopefully including a picture if possible, and telling us about your item. It can be anything--a photo from a trip, a picture of the dress you bought this week, a random image from an old yearbook showing a person you miss. It doesn't need to contain a picture if you can't get a picture--you can simply tell a story about a single item.

Label your post "Show and Tell" each week and then come back here and add the permalink in the comments section below (make sure you don't just comment that you participated: add a link to your blog in your comment so people can click over). I post a new Show and Tell post every Saturday night or Sunday. I usually move people up into the body of the post every few hours.

Oh, and then the point is that you click through all of your classmates and see what they are showing this week.

DH told me about Paul Newman's death by saying, "Cool Hand Luke died!" I replied, "Hud?" He responded, "Yes, Butch Cassidy." And we went back and forth for a while naming his roles. Big Newman fans in this house.

My mother & I shared a crush on Paul Newman. ; ) When I was in university, I bought her a Paul Newman poster that she hung in the rec room! My godmother (her cousin)'s husband used to race cars & knew him through that. Sigh.

If you want to figure out how to navigate this site, please click here. There's a lot to process on the sidebars alone and this should help you from getting lost. If you want to know about my header and the image, click here.

She doesn't really know why she is writing about herself in third person, but you can read a lot more about her right here.

What is Stirrup Queens? It's a blog about infertility and pregnancy loss, an exploration of adoption and donor gametes, a bitch session about daily life and books, an outlet for stories and baking lessons written by a sustainable-living, kosher, Jewish, mother of twins conceived via fertility treatments who is still trying to add to her family.
